Änglagård

In "House of Angels", a staid, bucolic Swedish village is all abuzz when a lovely and vivacious young woman comes to town to claim the estate of her late grandfather. A charming, warmhearted, and fun little romp which is not so much a story as it is a study of human nature, the film seems to delight in evincing the community's eccentricities as it reverberates like jiggling Jello with the disruptive influence of its latest resident. "House...." should be an enjoyable watch for more mature viewers, especially females, into foreign flicks and people watching. (B-)
